One of the devices described in Gatty's Raft Book he calls a "harp" which appears to be similar to the Kamal. His harp is three feet long and can measure altitudes up to 90 degrees. See his explanation in the Raft Book file and the scale for the harp is in Gattys tables. http://www.fer3.com/arc/imgx/Raft-Book2.pdf http://fer3.com/arc/imgx/Gattys-Tables.pdf gl -- NavList message boards: www.fer3.com/arc Or post by email to: NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList+@fer3.com
